Feeding Hogs for Tat r.
[coNTINuED.

CONTINUED
 A glance at the different n;o. showed that the feeding had prog"esss great variations in the fat and Iea Ia.1 On weighing, it was found that ea au su. cent. of all the meat that could Ina pe. from the carcasses of Lot wac s as while the Tat of Lot was 4G per ca''.' ~.' of all that eoul d he separated TIT. Tae- thigh bones of Lot l were G2 per ca,.s e stronger and g per cent. heavier thaS those of Lot 2. The rations fed in a .ha experiment were extreme each wav is order to show the differences cle.,,r and are, Of course, not meant for daii,, use. Before making any deduction. the following point should be elssrls understood: Can we put meat or fat a,. the hog at will? A man who goes Y, to training to develop his muscles ada. very little real meat or muscle fin h;s body, but rather gets rid of the fat and water in the body. On the other hand when men have a tendency to lsy on fat the limit may reach double ths normal weight. We may therefors say that the possible muscular deyelors ment of an animal has narrow imi, comparatively, while the possible fatir development has much wider rangs We should say, then, that hogs which show the best muscular deyelopmens are only normally developed. and th,, whenever we find them in that condi' ton it should be taken as a standard while hogs which have grown fat anS show a variation from the lean bov, are abnormal.
 We may now claim that feed;uo hogs rations rich in carbohydrates. bnt lacking in protein, like corn meal. ws will find:
 l. That there is an excessive de. velOpment of fat.
 ?. That the muscles of the bod ' fai to develop to their normal size.
 8. An abn0rmally small amount of hair and thin skin results. 4 The spleen, liver and kidneys are unusually small.
 ,. Amount of blood in the body s greatly reduced from the normal. 6. Strength of bones may be reduced one-haf.
 It would seem that system of feed. ing which robs the hog of half its blood and half it's natural strength of bone and produces other violent changes. must be an unnatural one, and, if per sisted in, will result in giving us an unsatisfactory race of animals to all concerned. From such parents must come progeny that will fall easy vic tins Co disease and disaster Know ing these facts. can we long wonder at the weak consultations of our hogs and their easy conquest by diseasey The meat from such animals cannot be of flavor and composition at all satisfac. tory to the consumer. In order to im- prove we must feed the breeding sows q ration liberal in protein. Young pigs may likewise have liberal allow. ance of protein, while fattening hogs may be fed large proportion of carb0- hydrates, especially when fattenng f,r l lard. The foods at our command rich in protein are skim milk, huttermilk, bran, shorts, peas, green clover. To succeed we need them.
